- I test out the LAOWA Super 35 Rangers T2.9 cine zoom lenses - testing them on my RED Komodo and LUMIX S5 iiX. I also got chance to test them out with the DJI Focus pro!

We love Ed
Love all the areas you cover for practical use. Great job, as always.
Thanks man
Look forward to a comparison test with the DZOFilm Pictor Zoom set.
Damn!!! The new DJI Lidar is awesome!! I just love how it focuses in and out when the subject moves around; somewhat imperfect, but that's the beauty of it.
It's great! We didn't have it perfectly calibrated, so I think I bit more time to set it up properly would solve some of that.
These lenses are beautiful. The zoom range is incredible. Ah man that focus pro looks great.
Yeah if only the damn thing wasn't out of stock everywhere, damn it DJI!
I love your content. I'll be picking up the set as well.
Looks amazing.
They seem kind of like the Fujinon MKs but just a bit lighter.
I wish Laowa or another manufacturer would bring out a 20-55 for full frame. That 28-75 is just not wide enough.
I feel like there might be a wider FF zoom coming down the line
16-30mm t2.9 will be released soon. And it’s smaller than the other full frame lenses

Loved this video!
Awesome video and lenses! Was great fun playing around with them with the focus pro with you!
Thanks so much for bringing along the focus pro! Still searching on a daily basis for one!
I had a play around with these yesterday at the Media and Tech Production show. They felt really nice, especailly the 17-50mm
The 17-50 will be a great workhorse lens for a lot of people! The size of them is just fantastic.
looks like exactly what I was searching for ...except the fact that there's no EF version, I'd love to pair them with my Revolva, any idea why there's no EF version? the full frame PL set has interchangeable PL/EF mount
Yes there are EF mounts available, the mounts are also user interchangeable too which is cool! So you can use pretty any mirrorless mount as well.
Love this, great video! We have the DZO Pictors 20-55 & 50-125 and are looking for a wider but probably won’t get another Pictor (your thoughts on them are correct). How do you think the 11-18 would look on a EVA-1? /Markus
I think it'd look great, if I'd had them in EF I'd have chucked them on.
These genuinely look great - I had tried the DXO catta zooms a while back and did not like them at all - The flare on these looks excellent.
The E stabilisation tip on the s5ii is also genius.
Does that work in the Full frame open gate mode and give decent coverage? So rather than cropping into the already cropped s35 frame?
That could possibly give you a open gate-esq s35 (I believe the E stabilisation High is like a 1.3/4 crop).
I believe the e-stab doesn't need to crop much more in on S35 mode as it's already cropped in on sensor so has enough room to work. Open gate 6k with e stabilisation set to high also gave a full open gate FOV (just about) only issue with that is you get a much slower sensor read out, so I prefer using S35 mode for faster sensor readout and reduced rolling shutter
@@EdProsser - It looks to me like the E-stab does still crop in a fair whack on high in S35 mode but I totally hear you about the rolling shutter performance!
Patiently waiting on word out of the Lumix summit happening in Japan right now.
anyway - I'm away to purchase your grading tutorial because I just love this look.
Yeah haven't tested it precisely, planning a vid on firmware 3.0 updates but... lack of time!
Wish I were in Japan!
Epic review like always can i ask in 8:02 is komodo or lumix? so amazing image
That's Komodo!
How do you compare these lens with Vespid primes ?
Unfortunately I didn't have time to do a side by side with them, anecdotally the Vespids are sharper and have better performance at T2.9 but also the size of 1 vespid is pretty much the same or larger than these zooms, in most cases they are heavier too!
If I can get a set of pictors in I will do a 3 way comparison
@@EdProsser Great waiting for the comparison video
Damn, sweet footage. Im trying to throw this on my FX30...! We will see haahhaa
Should good look gooood!
Unrelated to the lenses (which look great btw), but it's insane how the grain all but vanishes in 1080p due to compression and then in 1440p it comes right back. The bitrates must be way higher than I thought.
I know, CZcams compression quality has taken a nose dive over the last year, it's a shame, lots of my older videos now like ok pretty ropey, even in 4k the quality just isn't there any more.
I'm sure they will start launching a 4k premium tier to their paid service soon.
great video. Those lenses look nice, but not for me :)
S5II is a killer S35 camera indeed.
Is that a Laowa Ranger in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? ;)
Thank you, I was hoping someone would make this joke 😉
I really wish that all test footage for lenses wasn't as graded as they tend to be. Hard to judge a lens characteristics without knowing exactly was done in post.
I always include some REC 709 footage in there with the more controlled lens tests - but also want to show what the lenses are capable of in the context of a professional project. There are other channels who will give you lab style tests, I don't have the resources for that - I'm showing real world use and what I can achieve with the equipment - and how it inspires me to create certain images.
Really really good video Ed 🫡
Cheers dude
Just when I am about to drop the cash on dzo14-30 these pop up
I think these are a much smaller alternative to the DZO pictors
